Critics Consensus

Thanks to director Zak Hilditch's patient storytelling and strong work from lead Thomas Jane, 1922 ranks among the more satisfying Stephen King adaptations.

Rebecca Hawkes

Daily Telegraph (UK)

In cinemas, it might have been overshadowed by flashier rivals, but perhaps, on demand, this slow, but winningly bleak little tale will find the audience it deserves.

Rated: 4/5

[1922] is a credible addition to a filmography where practically every thought the writer commits to paper is, seemingly, deemed fit for the screen.

The familiar case of a short story stretched too thin in a feature film.

Rated: 2/4

The performances are great from top-to-bottom...this was a movie that probably should have been on the big screen.

1922 is a new type of Stephen King movie, executed with as much artistic inventiveness as passionate faithfulness.

Ready Steady Cut

1922 is an effective, chilling bit of work that boasts a revelatory lead performance and a compelling, gradual erosion of a man's psyche.

I love this movie, it's so entertaining to me. The scenery is probably my favorite part and the story in general, and just the way it was filmed and the song placement and choice is just amazing.

Thomas Jane nailed his part, I also liked the metaphor about being trapped like a rat in your own head, but that was not enough to save this slow burn boring movie.

Great atmosphere. The ending could have been a bit stronger, I think. Still, a solid movie experience and exploration of characters and issues!

Pretty good scenes and graphics. Plot was really good just had a few holes. Like he got a job at an old age with no hand but yet his son couldn’t get a job better than thieving? He ran away bc of the guilt of the crime but he wasn’t a suspect. Seems his death and the pregnant girlfriend is on Henry. Even if he ran away bc his girl was pregnant, would have done the same thing before him and his wife moved. Seems there was never another way for Henry as well as his decisions are based around his girlfriend. Better way should have been for the mom to realize her child is born and used to that area and doesn’t want to move. Not to mention her husband wanted to stay as well. If you didn’t, shoulda thought about that before marriage; property location all prior to conceiving a child as a child shouldn’t be moved around anyways unless necessary. To a child, life is happiness not money and maybe it is again when we are almost out of it.
